Kingdom of Navarre

The Kingdom of Navarre (824-1521) was a European monarchy in the Navarra region of northern Spain, bordering Bearn and Aragon. It split into Navarre-Bearn later in its history and Navarre itself was conquered by Spain in 1521.

History
Navarre succeeded the Duchy of Vasconia in 824 as the Kingdom of Pamplona, named for its capital city. Navarre was in personal union with Portugal for most of its years, but eventually split into a new state. Navarre's lands were chipped away repeatedly by Spain, and although they won the 1507 Siege of Viana against the Spanish. Navarre, however, was soon conquered by 1521. Northern Navarre became Navarre-Bearn, and the south remained in Spanish occupation and became the Navarra region.
